The AGI Decade Playbook
What every leadership team needs to understand about the next 10 years of AI — before it’s too late
More detailed information
We are not in an AI hype cycle. We are at the beginning of the most significant technological shift since the internet — and most leadership teams are woefully underprepared.
In this keynote, Renout van Hove maps out the AGI decade: the period between 2024 and 2034 where artificial intelligence evolves from a productivity tool into an autonomous force that reshapes industries, job roles, and competitive dynamics.
This is not a futurist talk filled with speculation. It’s a strategic briefing grounded in what’s happening right now — at companies Renout works with in energy, banking, manufacturing, and professional services.
What the audience takes away:
A clear understanding of the AI trajectory: from copilots to agents to autonomous systems
The “7% Club” framework: why only 7% of organisations achieve true AI transformation
The “25% to 25×” thesis: why most companies are stuck at incremental gains when the real opportunity is transformational
A practical roadmap for moving from experimentation to operational AI
Honest assessment of what AI cannot do — and the risks of pretending otherwise
Format: 60-90 min | EN, NL, FR | Physical or online

Renout van Hove doesn’t just advise on AI — he builds with it, every day.
As AI Accelerator at PerPetum Energy, one of Belgium’s leading renewable energy companies (600MW+ capacity), he built over 20 internal applications using AI in the past year alone. Not prototypes. Production tools that changed how a 50-person organisation operates.
That hands-on experience is what separates his keynotes from the typical consultant talk. When Renout speaks about AI transformation, he’s sharing what he’s learned from actually doing it — at scale, in a regulated industry, with real employees and real resistance.
Before his current ventures, Renout held senior positions at Dell, Salesforce, and Showpad. He authored “Obsessed” (2019), a book on customer data strategy that was already warning businesses to prepare for the AI era before ChatGPT existed.
Today he operates across multiple ventures: Quest2S (his management consultancy), GrowthAgent (AI-powered customer growth), and SiNergy (a joint venture with Delaware targeting €10M ARR in financial orchestration for renewable energy). He also co-founded Spectra Lash, bringing AI-assisted R&D to the beauty industry.
His keynotes aren’t motivational speeches with robot stock photos. They’re structured, honest, sometimes uncomfortable sessions that show leadership teams what AI really means for their organisation — the opportunity, the risk, and the math.
Renout speaks in English, Dutch, and French. He delivers keynotes, half-day workshops, and full AI enablement programmes including train-the-trainer formats for organisations of 50 to 5,000 employees.
